Diesel fuel prices have reached a record high in international markets, according to Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak, as reported by TASS.

Novak attributed the price surge to a combination of factors, including sanctions restrictions, attacks against refining infrastructure, and the closure of logistical transport routes.

The report did not specify which markets or regions have seen the steepest price increases, nor did it provide exact figures for the current record diesel prices.

Novak’s comments link the price pressure to the broader disruption affecting the global energy sector, including the impact of sanctions on Russian energy exports and reported attacks on oil refining facilities, which have periodically reduced processing capacity.

Rising diesel costs can have wide-ranging effects on economies, given the fuel’s use in transportation, agriculture and industrial sectors, though the report did not detail specific downstream impacts expected from the latest price levels.

No additional comment from international energy bodies or market analysts was included in the available report.
